Momenta

Momenta uses best practice research in the field of youth development, social work, adventure therapy, and experiential education, to ensure that programs are safe, engaging, meaningful, and challenging. It designs its programs to incorporate its core values: have fun, take care of each other, be respectful, commit and be safe. It also incorporates themes from participants' daily lives and agency defined therapeutic goals and aspirations for their group. This includes (but is not limited to): leadership development, character building, positive peer relationships, group cohesion, and coping strategies. Momenta clients include youth serving agencies, First Nations, new Canadians, youth in conflict, youth in care and youth with medical and/or behavioral diagnoses, as well as the staff teams that work with these groups.

Momenta takes pride in mentoring program participants who are interested in outdoor education and youth work, helping them progress into staff positions within the organization

Momenta believes in the positive change that can come from being outdoors, challenging oneself, and living and working within a community. Working with clients to ensure opportunities for this change are accessible to all has been Momenta's model since the beginning.
